Produktbeschreibung

A multi-modal Mock-Melodrama Mystery with twenty shades of a sweet and salty romance.

Mysteries fall like yesterday's dirty laundry at Cove Castle hotel in Westview. The stage is set as tales are told of quirky happenings and shenanigans.

It's Canada's 150th birthday. Even Westview's crappiest hotel, Cove Castle, is filled to the brim during the busiest week of tourist season. Marney, the hotel's most loyal employee, disappears while fighting to save Cove Castle. Perhaps Marney has a little dirty laundry of her own? It seems everyone close to Marney has a motive to make her gone. No one is disturbed that she is nowhere to be found until reporter Lois Hartlane and Officer Cockerel show up. But sparks start flying, and they steal the show! Poor Marney! Will she get out? Will she save the hotel? First she must save herself! Stay tuned!

Reader discretion is advised: This book is bawdy and bodacious and contains sex, drugs and rock 'n roll together with serious and melancholy family issues. And coarse language from a middle-aged mother… plus art, corny jokes, Rumi poems and recipes!

Autorenporträt

Cove Castle and the Tunnels of Doom is Paula's first novel:

"I have always enjoyed writing small pieces, playing with words, and journaling. A few things led me to start writing my novel in 2017. Prior to moving to our small island, we were yearning for a more creative lifestyle. I became disheartened working in HR. The hotel where I worked was shutting down. My family was still lamenting about our relocation to BC (after many years) and world politics went absolutely nutty. Too much! I sat down and wrote away the hours. It was very therapeutic and fun! Then the hard part came with editing, refining and polishing, to the end! I hope you enjoy my 'save-the-hotel' story and find your own freedom along the way."

Paula Smith (nee Gregovski, formerly Whynot) grew up in southern Ontario and enjoyed art studies through: high school, a summer scholarship at the Art Gallery of Ontario in 1982, and then Sheridan College. After dropping out of the Illustration course, she continued to pursue art when time allowed. Paula is the mother of three adult children and five grandchildren. She has a diverse background having worked in human resources and administration, in a variety of businesses: kitchen manufacturing, theatre, a mine refinery, and the hotel that almost broke her.

Paula lives in the Southern Gulf Islands, with husband, Randy, and dog, Miss Maisy Magoo, employee-of-the-month.
